Does anyone else have mixed feelings already about returning back to work? One part of me is ready for some adult company but the other part is really emotional about the thought of it and having to leave my baby.

I often dream about getting to my desk and sitting down with a cup of tea knowing that I can just sit there and drink the whole thing in one go. But I'm glad that I won't be doing that for a few more months yet

I feel exactly the same way. I know it will be good for us both but i feel so torn. I have reduced my days but still doing full time so longer days 😩 I don't go back till January so a few more months with bubs xx

Yes I feel exactly the same! I often have thoughts about whether we could manage if I didn’t go back to work but then I do think it would be great for our LOs development when she starts nursery.

I feel the same, I was ready but the moment is coming very soon and now I feel I didn’t a wrong decision😕😢

I've decided not to go back . I work with children (as a nanny) and I decided to stay with little one for abit longer. Yes money will be tight but money comes and goes. I went back too early with my son and I regret it so these years I will never get back so I'm going to enjoy them. I understand not everyone can do this but it's the decision I choose as I was feeling this way x

For me it’s just the going back to work and having deadlines and general work stress occupying my mind when I have baby stuff to deal with, housework ect.

If we could afford it I’d quit work in a heartbeat. Dreading going back x

I feel sick at the thought of going back🥹🥹

Im not going bk
